Qualifications

By choosing to learn with CMI you're not only provided with a recognised qualification [1] that can be studied throughout the UK and Europe, you're also signing up to an organisation which sets the qualification standards others follow.

Whether you learn through our Approved Centres, Distance Learning Providers or within your organisation, we have the qualification that’s right for you.

CMI is the only awarding body offering qualifications ranging from Level 2 (comparable to GCSE, ideal for supervisors or first line managers) through to Level 8 (comparable to PhD, ideal for CEO's). Our qualifications also cover key public sectors, such as MOD, Police and Health.

Alternatively, if you're restricted on time or budget you may wish to consider one of our short courses [2].
